Nissan and Renault – The French government demands the unification of companies

The Japanese side opposes such a merger

The French government asks Japan to bring together the car dealership Renault and Japanese Nissan, which is part of the alliance, is the only holding company. This was reported by RBC-Ukraine in reference to Nikkei.

A French delegation reportedly made a statement during its visit to Tokyo this week. The delegation included the director of the Public Participation Agency, Martin Vial, and the director of the cabinet of economics, Emmanuel Moulin

. They also announced their intention to appoint a new chairman of the Nissan board of directors in place of Carlos Gon, who had already been arrested. In accordance with the law of the partnership contract, the French company has such a right

The Japanese side opposes the merger of the company and, in this case, the French government, a shareholder of Renault, will be able to influence their policies. In the near future, Renault has to appoint its new leader, who must adopt a strict bargaining policy.

Recall, Nissan acknowledged the illegal receipt of Carlos Gohn of 7.8 million euros . The current Nissan and Mitsubishi executives, Hiroto Saikava and Osama Masucho, were not aware of these payments, although they were, along with Gon, members of the joint venture's board of directors, held equally by two companies.
